>Yokai watch 3 total sales: 1.2 million
>Pokemon s/m sales in Japan After two weeks: 1.9 million

Can we end the "killer" meme now?

literally who is calling it a killer
they're drastically different games from the same genre and YW was just the first one to give them even a sliver of competition

theyre both great games desu

Have you not seen the pokemon killer shitposting that plagues /v/ and /vp/ for months before and during the first game's release internationally?

Yes, Sun/Moon crushed YW3 in Japan this year.

1.9 million in its first three days vs. 1.29 million for YW3 since its July release in Japan.

The merchandise sales for YW are in freefall too. At the current rate, Digimon will surpass it in Japan by 2018/2019, and reclaim that #2 monster spot in the country.

Maybe if YW had better monster designs instead of a million recolors and downright abysmal Yo-Kai it would do better.

Or maybe Level 5 was pushing it too hard.

/v/ said YW would kill pokemon

they also said Sun and Moon would flop

it's commonly accepted that /v/ is the anti-/pol/, in that instead of always being right they're always wrong

I think YW is suffering from it being too Japanese and >>30413415. When Level-5 has a succesful franchise, they want to milk it out in as few time as possible. I think YW has had three different games in 2016. Layton also got a new installment every year until his story was over.

Thank fucking god, YW is such a boring game. And I'm including its sequels in the equation, the games are just automated ass. The only "good" part of it is the anime, and it should probably just stick to that.
